We were thrilled to welcome the 2026 Lexus Melbourne Cup Tour to Beaumaris Secondary College today, along with champion jockey Craig Williams!

Our Year 7 students had the opportunity to learn more about the Melbourne Cup, hear from Craig during a Q&A and get up close with the iconic trophy. Some of our Year 12 students also popped in to join in the excitement!

Craig spoke about pursuing passions and how overcoming challenges and making sacrifices can lead to greater rewards. Students asked thoughtful questions on a range of topics, adding depth to the discussion.

A memorable experience made possible by Year 7 student William P, whose initiative and enthusiasm brought the Tour to Beaumaris!
